Redefining Human Rights
[Guest post by DRJ]
Some say President Obama’s goal is to make America more like Europe. If so, he’s on the right track and we could all have free vacations to look forward to:
“The Times of London is reporting that the European Union could declare tourism to be a basic human right, and if you can’t afford to travel, then government should take care of the expense for you.
Under the pilot program, citizens living in Northern Europe will be encouraged to travel to Southern Europe and vice versa.
Not only do you get a free trip, but the program will help “promote a sense of pride in European culture and bridge the north-south divide in the continent and prop up resorts in their off-season.”
Life, liberty and vacations for everyone!
